Advocate Sports Editor Logan Mullarkey interviewed Nash about the season

Logan Mullarkey: What does it mean to you to be captain of the lacrosse team?

Evan Nash: It’s a huge honor. I’ve been playing at Law since my freshman year, and I’ve looked up to the captains before me. Now that it’s my turn, I just want to lead by example. It’s about being someone the younger guys can look to, and also keeping the team focused and motivated.

LM: What’s the energy like on the team this year?

EN: The energy’s different but in a good way. We’ve got a mix of older and new players, and everyone’s working. Practices are intense, and guys are pushing each other. We’ve been underdogs in the past, but we’re not backing down from anyone this year.

LM: What’s your favorite part of being on the lacrosse team at Law?

EN: It’s the bond with my teammates. We push each other every day, and that brings us closer. No matter the outcome, we’re in it together. And getting to represent Jonathan Law is an honor.

LM: What are some goals you’ve set for the team this season?

EN: We want to finish the season with a winning record and make a strong run in the season. But more than anything, we want to earn respect. That means competing every game, no matter the opponent.

LM: What advice would you give to younger players coming up in the program?

EN: Don’t take it for granted. Four years go by fast. Show up and work hard, don’t be afraid to step up. Effort and attitude matter more than anything.
